Why did you delete the pspsex.net entry. It has every right to exist if http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veoh and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YouPorn and dozen other ones are on there. The sites are even on the same list in the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_video_services and each one has a wiki.

Nafion and Hydrion
editPlease do not delete these items from wikipedia. Nafion has been invented in the 1960's by walther grot and Hydrion was invented last year by the son of Walther Grot. Stephen Grot. These items are commonly used in today's fuel cell research industry and are manufactured by various companies. I am also new to wikipedia as far as adding words so I dont know the criteria for how long an article should be. Etc etc.

editHi, you recently edited a page which I created about "Manon Dave". It seems that all of the information in the "TV & Film Music" section is incorrect. The subject of the article, himself, has emailed Wikipedia asking for this to be resolved, but since you are Admin, I was hoping you could delete this section?
All the credits linking him to these projects have now been removed from IMDb and TV.com.
Many thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Karolinadawson (talk • contribs) 19:28, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Talk page
editHi, I'm penny loo and you've just deleted my article titled : 73 Petaling Scouts Troop. Its stated that wiki doesn't host any companies, clubs and etc. but its also noted that organisations that are famous enough can be added. This is my first Wiki article, and its really a popular search request, its about a scouts troop in Malaysia. In Malaysia, Scout groups are not clubs or organisations (open groups) but rather attached to the schools as part of their uniform body, therefore, the troop article will be relevant for at least a 100 more years. Next year the 73 petaling Scouts troop will turn 20 (years). Its patron school is SMK Damansara Utama which is also a wiki article. around 200 ppl join this troop yearly, by now after 20 years, at least 10000+ ppl are from this troop, as much as PricewaterhouseCoopers (accounting firm) employess in total in South East Asia for which an article is also dedicated to. So i request for the "73 Petaling Scouts Troop" article be re-instated. Btw this troop gets an article too Oreland Boy Scout Troop 1...Thank You.
I found and added something to my talk page that may come in handy for new page patrol -- if you think it's worthwhile, I recommend following the same procedure I used and asking its creator for permission. I'm told it works very well -- I'll see. Accounting4Taste:talk 17:44, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Why speedy delete OMAC Industries, I wouldn't have bothered if it wasn't notable. I provided references and links to the two other articles connected to it.

I attempted to start a page for an indie New York musician, Amanda Halsey, a singer/songwriter and cited two verifiable sources. I will not keep attempting if this is going to be deleted.

American Drug War links
edit- "Please stop adding advertising or inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did in Joe Arpaio. It is considered spamming, and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising. Thanks. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:26, 1 May 2008 (UTC) This is your last warning. The next time you insert advertising or a spam link, as you did to James P. Gray, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:27, 1 May 2008 (UTC)"
- All of the entries that I have edited are of people who volunteered to appear in American Drug War, many of whom are personal friends with the director, Kevin Booth. The subject of the documentary is relevant to their careers and the information on their pages. Please let me know if I'm free to put the links back on the relevant articles. - talk:EndTheDrugWar
- "If someone is a prominent cast member in the film, such as Tommy Chong, that fact can be mentioned (as it is in the Chong article -- the film is on his list of appearances). But adding an external link to the film to each cast member's article is just spamming, pure and simple. So no, don't re-add the links. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:35, 1 May 2008 (UTC)"
- Have you seen the documentary? Tommy Chong is featured just as much as the other people who's entries I edited. Arpaio actually has more screen time than Chong! There are probably over 40 people in the film with Wikipedia entries... I've only added links to maybe 5-10 of them. -talk:EndTheDrugWar
- Well, then discuss that in the text of the Arpaio article, and link to the Wikipedia article on the film, not to the film's external site. That's the part that's spamming ==
- Cool, thanks, I've taken note! I'm new here... -talk:EndTheDrugWar
- On James Gray's page, I can't edit the main description for some reason, just the external links section. Is it okay to add an internal link to the ADW Wiki page in the external links section? Also, is there any other way to message Wikipedia users without posting on a page like this? Thanks again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by EndTheDrugWar (talk • contribs) 19:46, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- The only edit button I see is next to the external link header and when I click it, the only thing I can edit is the external links. Is there a hidden way to edit the top portion of the entry? EndTheDrugWar (talk) 19:54, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- Are you clicking "edit this page" at the TOP of the page? - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 19:57, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- Aha! Duh... Again, pardon my ignorance, I'm new here. I just saw the edit links on the side and didn't realize there was one at the top. Thanks for fixing that for me! EndTheDrugWar (talk) 19:58, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

NawlinWiki, I have recreated The Gathering (church) entry with outside sources to verify notability. I request you review the page and let me know if this meets requirements. If it does not meet requirements, please explain to me why The Gathering (church) entry is not notable but a church entry like Piney Grove United Methodist Church apparently is. Thank you. --Daparnell (talk) 01:45, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Regarding the request for speedy deletion of the Alph article
editAfter our first conversation on the Talk:Transhumanism and whenever our last conservastion occurs, it seems that User:Lemmey is on a campaign to severly edit or speedily delete many articles I have created and pictures I have uploaded over the years or any article I have recently edited (the Alph article being the most recent example). Although I know I don't own anything and I concede that that some of these articles and pictures deserved to be improved or deleted, I feel there is something un-Wikipedian in his behavior when it seems to be done out of malice rather than a duty to improve Wikipedia. Is there anything that can done about this? --Loremaster (talk) 21:20, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

New Project
editMyself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.
If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight (talk) 05:55, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi Nawlin, I came across the above article being developed as a new page. A quick google search threw up no results. As the author also created an attack page which was based on a genus page, I wanted to ask you to take a look. I want to AGF so don't want to delete tag without cause. Could you take a look? --Deadly∀ssassin 19:16, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

speedy
editI know you're an experienced admin--about the same length of time as for me-- but I do not think "original essay" a reason for speedy? Since the article will probably get a good deal of attention do to the educational project, I think it matters to do things correctly, which in this case would be to undelete it and nominate it for prod. It is indeed an inappropriate Wikipedia article, and I don't think too much of it as an academic paper either--superficial analysis. DGG (talk) 21:12, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Does the fact that RomexSoft company is the Adobe solution partner(this can always be checked on the Adobe site which was included into sources of the deleted article) prove the notability? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fuegoazul (talk • contribs) 13:58, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

So my contribution entitled The BT man was deleted because it did not indicate why it was notable.
However, wiki guidelines state: "If it is likely that independent sources could be found for a topic, deletion due to lack of notability is inappropriate unless active effort has been made to find these sources. For articles of unclear notability, deletion should be a last resort."
From what I can see the article was deleted by someone who doesnt live in the UK, doesnt understand the significance of the phrase The BT man and who doesnt understand that an individual calling his business The BT man and travelling round in a Robin Hood-esque type manner saving BT customers huge sums of money, and generally telling customers the things that BT dont want them to know, is a notable subject and should NOT have been deleted.
I am going to register a formal complain with wiki about the speed and lack of discernable action. Glowplug2 (talk) 14:17, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Can you give me more feedback about this bio? My plan is to contribute bios for other art bloggers/writers of note like Edward Winkleman and Tyler Greene once I finish with the Sherwin bio. I would also like to do some articles on the art fairs like Scope if they are not on here already. Also, it appears that the interviews conducted by Mr. Sherwin that I added as external links have vanished. For example, I added a link to the interview Mr. Sherwin had with James Rosenquist on the James Rosenquist article in the external links section and it vanished shortly after my first attempt at creating a bio for Mr. Sherwin. I noticed there are other interviews with Mr. Rosenquist listed in the external list so I'm confused as to why the Myartspace interview link was removed. I'm new. I don't really understand. I really want to contribute art related material on wikipedia but at this rate it seems pointless. (Roodhouse1 (talk) 18:43, 7 May 2008 (UTC))

I was unable to find any corroborating evidence that he had done any of the things he said he had done outside of his own MySpace page. Would it have been more appropriate to tag it as a hoax?

Ryder Scott
editYou speedily deleted my article on Ryder Scott. I believe the company is notable, as it is a prime example (as the biggest company in the field) of a little known but in some ways quite important oil industry niche - that of reservoir evaluation and analysis by third parties for external confirmation. While you may not have deemed that noteworthy from the stub, I was under the impression that before an article is deleted I'm supposed to get a fleeting chance at defending it (and perhaps throw in some kind of vote) before everything I wrote is removed. TastyCakes (talk) 20:30, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
Fine. I would rather not have had to retype everything I put in though. TastyCakes (talk) 20:33, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
Thank you. Page is remade. Please let me know if I still haven't convinced you of it's notableness.. TastyCakes (talk) 20:49, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
Well Ryder Scott is mentioned quite a lot on the internet (google search "Ryder Scott + oil") for example [5], [6], [7], [8] but it is largely in reference to the reserve estimates they make. The company itself is not very often discussed, just like you wouldn't find many websites talking about statscan but you will find lots of websites talking about the reports they put out.

Deletion of redirects with history created right after undiscussed controversial moves
editSorry, but from this message it seems to me that you misunderstood the problem. This redirect is an indirect consequence of a page move made without discussion despite its being obviously controversial. After the page move, the artificial history of the page was created[9] to make a move back cumbersome. This method of forcing one's view is known for a while as AndriyK's trick, by the name of inventor, and there is a special arbcom remedy just for the moves of this kind. The move needs to be undone through a deletion of history and moving the article back. Than the incoming links would be fix automatically. Regards, --Irpen 03:51, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

I do not have much information on this band, but that is why I came to Wikipedia last night - to learn about the band. Then I found out there was no page, so I decided I had to make one and hope that other editors might have information about the band. Hopefully we will not have a speedy deletion this time.

editHave you never seen dogs Dock Jumping? I thought you reason for deletion of Dock jumping was not in the best interest of the sport. Because that's what it is a dog sport just like Flyball,Agility and more. The article was not about one organization as in my list of links. It has been around since 2001, as seen on ESPN Great Outdoor Games, Purina's Incrediable Dog Challenge and many club events. With many thousands of dogs and handlers worldwide participating at various venues. As I am not the best writer, I want to submit Dock Jumping so that others may add to it.

Find reliable independent sources, and we'll "let it get started." Simple as that

- At the risk of seeming anal would you check to see if the original version pointed at Musa Abed Al Wahab? I clicked on the history sometime before it was deleted. It showed I created the redirection. It showed someone redirected it, then tagged it for speedy deletion. I would like to see if that tagger engaged in an act of vandalism.

Why have you reverted my question
editWhy have you reverted my question? Mr Beans Backside (talk) 20:13, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
- I wasn't aware contributing to the encyclopedia was a requirement for asking questions on the Reference Desk. However, my question was malformed - I wrote Easter is today! (I'm getting tired) so I take your point. Perhaps that question needs refining further before I ask it again. Mr Beans Backside (talk) 20:17, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Deletion of Creation of cosmos
editHi NawlinWiki. I just placed a PROD template on this article, and then discovered that you'd deleted it less than ten minutes later. Aren't PRODs supposed to remain in place for five days? If you were in fact deleting it under the speedy criteria, your deletion summary did not give that impression. Olaf Davis | Talk 12:11, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- I've replied to your reply on my talkpage. Olaf Davis | Talk 12:42, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Nawlin, deleting it with the explanation "Category g11 states: "Pages which exclusively promote some entity and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten to become encyclopedic." I'm interpreting the "entity" here as Christianity. If you disagree with that interpretation, that's your prerogative. " is a very wrong use of Speedy.

Page move protections
editI noticed you protected Minneapolis, Minnesota (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) and Minnesota (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) against page moves. I'm just curious about these protections. Has there been some sort of problem with someone moving city and state articles against consensus? Or is this a preemptive strike against vandalism (e.g. someone moving Minneapolis to HAGGER???)
I'm mainly just curious, so I'm not arguing about it. I doubt that someone is really trying to move Minneapolis (like to the east side of the Mississippi River, for instance). --Elkman (Elkspeak) 17:27, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hi. I'm also curious about this; I noticed that you have move-protected Anguilla. I'm mainly curious because I've always viewed protection as a reactive tool, rather than a proactive one, and this protection seems proactive. Is this something that's commonly done on articles nowadays? Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 22:39, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

The (HTCIA) high tech crime investigation association is a professional non-profit organization for individuals in the field of digital & computer forensics on both the law enforcement and corporate side. Its membership includes investigators, prosecutors and security professionals of all kinds. As an organization they offer training in the methods, processes, and techniques relating to investigations and security in advanced technologies. They are also an opportunity for computer investigators to network with each other and people in industry so that they can get to know one another. They offer regular events and conferences in which people present and discus new developments in the field of computer forensics and computer security and offer training in forensic tools and methods.
Deletion of HTCIA stub
editThe htcia's notability is that it is one of the most well known associations for computer forensics and computer law enforcement in the US. The reason i put it in a stub is in the hopes that others, perhaps those in HTCIA might be able to provide more information as to it beginnings, workings, events, and such to help provide context and further prove notability. it was my impression that stubs were the perfect vehicle for adding a little bit of information in the hopes of gaining more. also the HTCIA is as notable with in certain circles as some of the other stubs in the law enforcement stubs category. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rooktoc3 (talk • contribs) 22:32, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Why are you blaming me for not creating the perfect article? I am the one who has created a new article, you have only tried to get it deleted.
By the way, how was I supposed to know that I had to add a source and the information about the awards before I first saved a draft, to prevent you rushing in and deleting it, without bothering to check whether you could identify the subject from the information provided?

Amendment of Holland
editI found this in the history of the Holland page:
03:46, 14 May 2008 NawlinWiki (Talk | contribs) m (Protected Holland: no reason to move this page w/o discussion [move=sysop]) (undo)
There are serious issues with the "Holland" page, as described there. Are you against the proposed amendments to this page? There is a discussion going on, but you haven't made a comment on the discussion page. I don't know what you mean by "protect", but the amendments I'm proposing will be made with the consensus of the regular users who visit and comment there regularly. The idea is not to "move the page", but to turn it into a "redirect" page. People typing in Holland should go directly to the "Holland (disambiguation)" page. Given the intense confusion about the meaning of Holland (and the vandalism directed against this page) it's important that users wishing to learn more about "Holland" be directed to the appropriate spot.

editHey there. I saw you were doing batch move protections.

- Looks a wrong practice to me. I saw the protection on Peterborough, but for example why should there be protection on South Side (Chicago), which could equally be at South Side, Chicago or South Side of Chicago or something similar? If non-admins are by policy usually allowed to move pages, then there needs to be a good reason for protection in each case.--Rumping (talk) 20:59, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- You won't stop Grawp like this, but it's clear that some pages shouldn't be moved, at least without discussion. Page moves are exceptional if you compare with usual edits, I don't see how it could be harmful to the Wiki spirit. Otherwise, let's lift the move protection of, say, United States. Is it worth the risk ? I don't think so, it's like our high visibility templates, they are locked. We have {{editprotected}}, and likewise, it's easy to ask an admin to move a page. Really, articles like World, or Europe, have no reason to be moved unilaterally. Cenarium (talk) 00:28, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure why you felt this entry was a candidate for speedy deletion. I looked over your 'List of things that will get speedily deleted' and still cannot find a good reason. Perhaps you think the author is referring to some garage band? A wiki reference to this band had been created in the 'List of Artists' section on the wiki page for R.E.X. Records, a record company, prior to the deletion of these comments. That wiki reference to Haven was created by someone other than the author of this deleted text, so it is fair to assume these comments were not entered as a joke. Haven was in fact a signed band that existed as described. Please restore this deleted page or at least provide a better explanation why it was deleted.

Bucknell Pong Deletion
editI am wondering why you deleted my article on Bucknell Pong.
Bucknell Pong is mentioned as one of the major forms of Pong in the Dartmouth Pong article. It does not fall under the deletion criteria as I read them. Anyway, I would appreciate it if you could explain to me how to ensure that the article meets Wikipedia's criteria so it won't be deleted again.LedRush (talk) 19:56, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- If you believe it is just a variant of Beer Pong, why does Dartmouth Pong get its own variation (which is quite different than the Bucknell version which is accepted as one of the major forms)? Also, I suspect you didn't research this completely and perhaps didn't even read the article...you've made Bucknell Pong redirect to the Beirut page (throwing pong (invented at Bucknell, BTW)) and not "Beer Pong (with paddles)" article!
- I hope you can take three actions: (1) correct the redirect; (2) provide me with the "code" of my article so I can take my old article and fold it into the "Beer Pong (with paddles)" one (which I won't do until #3); (3) engage me in discussion as to whether this subject belongs on Wikipedia.LedRush (talk) 20:10, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for taking actions 1 and 2. I have moved my complaints to the Bucknell Pong page so it won't crowd our talk sections. I hope on that page you can explain to me why Dartmouth Pong is treated differently than the Bucknell version, and address my other points. Thanks in advance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by LedRush (talk • contribs) 20:24, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- The Dartmouth Pong article does not have citations which claim it is a different game than other forms of Beer Pong (paddles). Quite the opposite, most indicate that there are several variations of the game at Dartmouth. They don't refer to a single type of "Dartmouth Pong".
- Several facts are undisputed. Dartmouth made a bunch of pong games with paddles. There are a couple subsections of that game: a lob version and a fast verstion. The lob version is the version primarily at Dartmouth while the Fast version is the version played primarily at Bucknell. This is even uncontradicted in the Beer Pong (paddles) article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_pong_%28paddles%29
- http://by134w.bay134.mail.live.com/mail/mail.aspx?wa=wsignin1.0&n=1701293834 (shows pong played at Bucknell in 1970)
- http://www.dailyprincetonian.com/archives/2004/11/19/opinion/11525.shtml (shows popular variants of Pong (not played elsewhere) in early 80's.
- http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=4744930370 (Another mention of Bucknell in the formation of Pong....note the director of the movie went to Colgate and used the "fast" form of Pong in the movie (Colgate and Bucknell are close rivals).
- However, all of this is playing into your hands. You first stated that Bucknell Pong doesn't deserve an article because it should be a subset. However, I demonstrated that Dartmough Pong is worthy of its own even though it is just a variant of Pong with paddles. Then you changed the goal posts and said it was because of a lack of citations. The Beer Pong (paddles) articles doesn't have any citations, yet it is around. Also, I was hoping that I could expand on the article as I had time to do better research, and that people could read the article and help. Poor citations are not enough to speedy delete an article.
- Please, allow the article to stand and develop. If it doesn't hold up to long-term scrutiny, then take it down. However, your reasons for deleting it now don't seem persuasive seeing that:
- 1. Dartmouth Pong is worthy enough as a subject to get its own article
- 2. Insufficient citations aren't enough to speedy delete an article
- 3. Adding Bucknell Pong to Beer Pong (paddles) will disrupt the original article and confuse visitorsLedRush (talk) 21:10, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for being so patient with my comments, and for responding so quickly. Also, I am sorry for misstating your action (I didn't really know there was a difference between a redirect and a deletion).
If I take your suggestion (and fold both Dartmouth Pong and Bucknell Pong into Beer Pong (paddles), don't you think the article will be unwieldly? I thought the structure upon which I was trying to build would be easiest and most logical. People can go to the main article to learn the basics of Pong with Paddles and they are introduced to a couple of major forms of it. If they want to learn the detailed rules of different forms, then they could go to the specific articles on those forms.
I swear I am not trying to be a ball-buster, I just strongly believe that the existing structure is superior. Additionally, I don't fully see why my content is ok as a part of an article but not as an entire article. Thanks for your continued patience.LedRush (talk) 21:20, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Are you done engaging me on this, or are you just off work? Also, did you read my post on the Bucknell Pong discussion page? LedRush (talk) 23:45, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

---
Rough summary: - I note you say you are not prepared to discuss further - I wish to say and ask a few things - I would be pleased for a reply - But only if you wish to - No rush – think about it - reply if you wish - when you not in a hurry:
1: I did not pick bpd randomly as place to put that passage. Any one with an overview of what is going on [the debate in the mental health arena] will know why I chose bpd: i) It is, and has long been, the most controversial label [schizophrenia is catching up now though]: ii) It is within established texts that bpd teaches us something about mental illness definitions and personality disorders: iii) It is paradoxical in that the more extreme the case the less visible it is – unique and curious and of great difficulty to explain within the field of psychiatry: iv) Other reasons too technical for me to bother you with:
2: Can you tell me how many people are going to be logging in to discuss on bpd page. I WILL POST THIS THERE THOUGH ASWELL AS ELSEWHERE I GUESS:
3: I feel inclined to expose the emails I sent you – compelled actually. Openness in a dispute that someone has become sulky in is important I feel - It helps heal ALL of tribe: I emailed you out of consideration – but I prefer no secrets!!!:
4: Can we put article in with references – it does imply it is or may be a minority view. If not can I put disclaimer for wiki of any mental illness caused by reading a narrow received opinion?:
5: We could put it at bottom of article – I could add more – but NOTE AT HEADER TO SEE BOTTOM OF ARTICLE FOR ROUNDED VIEW WOULD BE ESSENTIAL? I could put the passage in anti psychiatry (which I did not know existed) BUT WOULD INSIST ON A LINK FROM ALL PSYCHIATRIC LABELS we can manage: This paragraph or a link must come near top (I did not put it at very top – I put it where it would be seen and where the following text ran seamlessly onward from it) AND BE CLEAR – see next point:
6: Wiki is not considered a reliable source for the technical – [despite a recent brilliant piece on bbc radio 4 ‘thinking allowed’ where a member of public compared wiki with Britannica on a varied selection of topics of which they were well versed – conclusion “the cathedral is dead - long live anarchy” TO PARAPHASE] – despite this rousing recommendation your reputation falls foul in others’ eyes of what you similarly wield then at others you see as beneath you - it would appear – THUS THE MAJORITY OF READERS WILL NOT EVEN KNOW OF BALANCING VIEW – MANY WILL BE SUFFERERS I SUSPECT – THIS IS DANGEROUS FOR BPD SUFFERERS AND CARERS – AS A POSSIBLE FIRST PORT OF CALL:
7: I AGREE WITH ALL THAT YOU HAVE SAID (see below point 8) - EXCEPT THE INSULT THING - YOU DEFINITELY STARTED IT - I BELIVE HUMOUR IS THE (one of) BEST MEDICINE - ADMITTEDLY THERE ARE at least TWO SIDES TO THIS ARGUMENT AND JOKES CAN HIDE AWFUL ABUSIVE MEMES – I THINK YOU WILL FIND YOU ARE PROJECTING AT ME FROM YOUR HIPPOCAMPUS AND HYPOTHYLAMUS etc STUFF THAT YOU HAVE PATTERNED FROM STARING AT SO MUCH VANDALISM OVER THE COURSE OF YOUR TIRELESS WORK - NO DOUBT - HUMOUR ASKS US TO SEE THINGS DIFFERENTLY - AT BEST IN A VERY CONSTRUCTIVE WAY - IF WE ARE too aloof & ARROGANT TO LOOK IT, CAN FEEL LIKE AN INSULT or we miss the point:
8: I have been very patient with you. You have ended up playing the ‘card’ you should surely have played first (and I would have expected first) last: i.e. That the article should be placed elsewhere or is not a majority view and so deservers little billing:
Of course this would mean that years ago gay would be a vicious attack on people as an entry: That ‘blacks’ should be whipped into slavery would be standard unquestioned stance in your wiki:
So I hope you see that in some articles wiki should be ahead of the game for reasons of GOOD WILL TO ALL (WO)MEN and children etc. MORAL compass etc:
9: you do not mention that some administrators (I have found one straight away) may agree about progressively fostering genuine sub cultural anthropology etc (please don’t suggest I stick it in anthropology section) – it is probably, world wide across time, a majority view – can site examples if you wish and that wiki encourages opposing views for balance:
10: The issue of verifiability here is going to be important for the reasons of the ethics of the victor writes the rules. I cite modern historical study as moving toward accepting this paradox and trying to allow for it:
11: I have my own model of the universe as does everyone including you:
12: I note your use of the word OUR wiki in a sentence that excluded me:
13: I have not reviewed your biographies as yet but I URGE you to stop and thinkfeel - In this article, I want, (if you say I do sir), though I don’t feel I ask for it, an exception - Not for me as YOU INSULTINGLY put it more than once. But for the people the very entry is defining:
Who are you to dictate wiki policy in a conflict of rules and interest situation? Stop playing games and god? What is knowledge for? Let form follow function IN THIS ARTICLE?:
14: I would prefer to leave the body of the article untouched and add this paragraph (you exclude point blank with a litany of bias within wiki world of rules) to article but I could go and justifiably with citation spend (waste) hours hacking it to pieces if you prefer. The omissions and lack of emotional balance in society are everything in the bpd world my friend! All humans share the bpd traits - let not wiki - if only in this article! Think of bpd and other negative labels as actually people carrying the load under sensitivity that you don’t feel:
15: We have proved you don’t like labels. I rarely label a child or any for this reason. I say not you are an idiot. I say is that not an idiot thing to do or idea? QED. This entry MATTERS. If you don’t like it - why should a fascist’s entry not have proportionate balance in terms of effect - not your personal view of wiki hierarchy?:
16: Example: Should one place a ‘proven’ negative about someone everyone says is good ‘ GOD ’ like - at the very top of article - say a judge or the bloke the Catholics recently dug up and put in a glass box for all to (file/’phile’ past) bow to and made a saint – yet he seems to have been an abuser and had a personality disorder:
Similarly should a positive view of someone everybody wants to negatively label be put forward when individually they may have done only ‘ GOD’s ‘ work.
Tricky entries my friend - Need love? - Children are reading wiki as source - The study of the cult of psychiatry (psychology is clearer but needs to be seen in a wider context) has in my experience driven sensitive searching people over the edge as it is not an answer to the human condition as commonly thought and is presented but is a system of management or at least view which does not ‘add up’? All systems are imperfect so it is (can only be) perfect within its framework? THIS IS IMPORTANT:
17: For the record - Social anthropology devours psychiatry and psychology as foundations - I do not like or dislike them - I am impartial - BUT I AM partial to love - I am a shrink - A psychologist - Child psychologist - And more and less:
18: I give thanks: .-)

From Romanhom
editHi, you recently deleted the link to the page in our site describing (text and photos) Rome's Jewish quarter, the former "Ghetto". I did not publish this page with any commercial intention. Our site romanhomes.com is very popular with clients, and is quite able to stand on its own. I just included the link solely because as a scholar of Jewish matters and topics, I sincerely think that the page http://www.romanhomes.com/your_roman_vacation/quarters/jewish-quarter.htm is the best regarding both the description and photos of the Jewish quarter. It is also well balanced, and takes into account all historical aspects of Rome Jews, still controversial to this day. In essence, it is a cultural page, which viewers of Wikipedia would have benefitted from. The same goes for a link which I recently posted on Tivoli's Villa d'Este http://www.romanhomes.com/your_roman_vacation/quarters/tivoli-villa-deste.htm which is one of the best descriptions, and it has among the best photos of Tivoli. Uniquely, it also has the sound of the water of the fountains. In this page there is no reference whatsoever to properties or any other service: in fact we don't even have properties there. It is just that we, and in particular myself, love Rome and we love to publish feature articles on its infinite wonders and charms, on one hand with detailed descriptions and photos - better than those you can find everywhere - and on the other hand with a commentary which is in-depth and however different from the usual "jingles-mantras-bla-bla" you find around.

- VonWoland, please watch your language.
- It's necessary to patrol new pages carefully; I'm sure you can understand that there are hundreds of junk pages created on wikipedia every day.
- A lot of work goes into checking new pages, and the people doing so have to make decisions as to the worthiness of the article that they see at the time.
- This is why it's recommended to develop an article in a sandbox area, so that when it's put into an article, it's already good enough to stand.
- I hope you'll understand this, and I'm genuinely sorry that you seem angry.
- If I can help in any way, please ask me on my own talk page.
- Thanks,
